In theory it looks easier than it actually is!!

Barrow Solihull
5/10 Barrow -0.75AH 1.75
Solihull and Barrow both had midweek replays to contend with in the FA Cup. Both sides managed to scrape through. Solihull under new manager Liam McDonald have had a perfect start to a new era with a surprising win in the cup over League Two opponents Yeovil. This went into extra time and penalties and was a very tough game. One which the players are likely to be feeling the effects of. Solihull have two very important games coming up when they face sides near the bottom of the table in Torquay and North Ferriby and these will be the ties where there will be pressure for results.
Barrow on paper had an easier task but put away Taunton on home soil, 2-1 winning in 90 minutes. Barrow are waiting on a fitness test for Byron Harrison before Saturdays game but this forward position is where Barrow have plenty of quality to cover and any player coming in will be wanting to prove a point. Ross Hannah replaced Harrison in the week and is likely to start. Barrow actually struggled in the week against Taunton to put out a strong squad due to numerous problems including, Harry Panayiotou who was travelling back from international duties with St Kitts and Nevis, Dan Cockerline who was cup-tied and Moussa Diarra was stuck in France. All three return here and will fresh and raring to go.
Solihull have no injury problems ahead of the trip to Barrow but you could say at this stage of the season tired legs come into play and Barrow have the advantage here with a strong squad especially in attacking positions. Barrow are unbeaten in 14 matches and are very strong. I watched them last at home to a good Eastleigh side and Barrow looked levels above for most of that game. Solihull are a side with their eye nearer the bottom of the table than the top and I expect Barrow to carry on with a promotion push with a convincing victory here.

Gateshead - Eastleigh
5/10 Gateshead -0.25AH 2.11
Last time I saw Eastleigh away at another decent side, Barrow, I was disappointed. Eastleigh appear to be several players short of a promotion winning squad despite so much money being spent over the years. Gateshead always go under the radar and always challenge for a Play Off spot. I expect the same again this season. Very little separate the pair on the league table with Gateshead having a two point advantage.
Having said all this, there is a side show going on with the FA Cup, and Eastleigh just landed their biggest ever result in their history by beating League One, Swindon in the 1st Round of the prestigious cup. Eastleigh are going to be on a huge high which may make things tricky here but Gateshead have had the extra rest after TWO weeks off and come in after their biggest result of the season having beaten promotion challenging Dag & Redbridge 5-0 away from home. This was not a flash in the pan, Gateshead are on form after a great October having beaten Maidstone, Tranmere and Dover and at home have lost once all season. The two week break has also meant players have had time to recover from injures with Nyal Bell and defenders Liam Hogan and James Bolton all returning to the side.
Last time out in the league Eastleigh drew 2-2 at home to a very poor York side who were very much in transition with a new manager coming in. The Eastleigh manager has also hinted that he won t be changing the side from midweek and we could have some tired legs against a fresh Gateshead. Eastleigh to Gateshead is a huge trip and they aren t staying overnight but travelling on the day. This is a 320 mile journey by coach! It is so long that they are actually stopping off at Doncaster on the way up to go for a swim at Doncaster Rovers training ground to keep loose.

York - Dagenham & Red.
3/10 York +0.5AH 1.73
Aidan Connolly is back in the squad after eight games out injured which is a big boost as he is one of York s best players. York have been going through an overhaul of players since Gary Mills came in which has included the exit of top scorer Richard Brodie who has gone out on loan to Macclesfield. Sean Newton who arrived from Wrexham is straight back into the side following suspension. Jack Higgins and Josh Robinson also return from injury.
After a morale boosting draw away at Eastleigh we could be seeing a turning point for York and the new signings are encouraging. Dagenham and Redbridge have their own problems despite doing very well in the league. The squad is full of injuries and has been for a sometime. However it is now taking its toll. In the week they lost to Halifax in their FA Cup replay who are in a division below will their last league game saw them get demolished at home 5-0 by Gateshead. It is not time to panic yet but this is side beginning to hit problems and not cope with their injury issues. For the midweek game against Halifax, the Dagger had seven injuries and three were defender so top scorer Oliver Hawkins had to play centre back. Andre Boucard does return though this weekend which is a big boost as he has been excellent. Academy players are likely to fill the bench. After a tricky week I think Dagenham & Redbridge will be more than happy with a draw here.
